One of Bristol’s most popular restaurants hopes to launch a second site nearby. Caper and Cure on Stokes Croft has submitted a planning application to open the deli and shop at Carriage Works next door.
If successful, the owners of the acclaimed restaurant plan to offer food and drinks for consumption on and off the premises. There would be a limited number of seats for customers inside the small unit and a few external tables.
The application states that there will also be a takeaway provision and sale of alcohol. The proposed opening hours are Monday to Sunday 8am-11pm.

Caper and Cure co-owner Giles Coram, who is also a professional actor, confirmed that the restaurant plans to expand its operation at the newly developed Carriage Works, which was derelict for decades. He said: “There’s quite a few things to sort before we sign on the dotted line but as soon as we have some certainty, all will be revealed!”
Caper & Cure’s new venture would be the second business to confirm an interest in opening at Carriage Works. Earlier this year, St Paul’s-based craft ale brewers New Bristol Brewery submitted an application for the premises on the ground floor of the historic Westmoreland House building.
